Thoughts on 686 competitor

[Tanners Owner]

Curious if anyone has a 686 competitor (170319) and what your thoughts on it are, pros & cons. My intent is to shoot it in icore

Thanks in advance

I have both a 686 and a 629 Competitor. The 686 was converted to 7 shot, cut for moonclips, had an Apex trigger job done, and I put a Delta Point on it. Great gun I like it a lot, and have shot a lot of local matches with it! I have no issues at all.

The 629 is stock other than cut for moonclips. Shot that in a match last weekend.

I have one. I like it a lot, shoots great. It would work fine for ICORE. It really shines in PPC or NRA Action Pistol (Bianchi Cup).

Owned this one for some time til a good friend talked me out of it a half dozen + years back.
The gun shot much better than I can, hope to get it back some day, but not holding my breath.

Great shooter...

I want a 686 competitor. Shot a friend's a few years ago and fell in love with it. Just have not been able to pull the trigger on one yet. I have so many others that fill that roll.

So have you given up on the idea of a 929 for ICORE?

Adios,

No not really, just looking at options.

I currently have a 627 Pinnacle Precision fitted an additional cylinder for 9mm (and others) that can fill that role, a 625jm for limited 6 and big six, and a M15 & 581 for classic Div.

If I were to get the competition model, I'd get the cylinder cut for 9mm and shoot it in both Classic and limited 6. Am also toying with the idea of a 610…..

I'm in a good position now and as I'm considering another revolver for icore I'm seeking input on guns that interest me.
